Inflammation induced by endotoxin from Escherichia coli enables the central action of caffeine on GnRH/LH secretion in female sheep

Caffeine is considered to be the most utilized psychoactive stimulant worldwide. It easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and may antagonize adenosine receptors and activate ryanodine receptors in the brain. Administered peripherally, caffeine reduces inflammatory-associated cha...

Relationships between betalains, phenolic compounds and bioactivity in selected plant matrices

Abstract Betalain-rich fruits and vegetables are recognised as important sources of bioactive compounds; however, the relative contributions of betalains and co-occurring polyphenols to antiglycation and enzyme inhibitory activities remain insufficiently understood. This study co...

Low-Dose Glyphosate Exposure Alters the Enteric Tachykinin System in the Porcine Small Intestine

Glyphosate is a widely used herbicide, yet its effects on the enteric nervous system (ENS) remain poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of low-dose glyphosate exposure on substance P (SP)-immunoreactive neurons and tachykinin receptor gene expression in the porci...

Foxn1 regulates epidermal structure, redox balance, and age related changes

Abstract Background Skin aging is a complex process, marked by structural decline, functional impairment, and diminished regenerative capacity. In this study, we shine a spotlight on the transcription factor Foxn1 and its pivotal role in modulating age-related changes in skin arc...

Ex Vivo Immune Response of Casein-Sensitized Lymphocytes to Bovine Milk Protein Composite Genotypes: Beyond the β-Casein A1/A2 Paradigm

Background: Although the impact of β-casein A1/A2 variants on human health is well-documented, the immunogenic potential of complex milk protein variants, including κ-casein (variants A, B, and E) and β-lactoglobulin (variants A and B) polymorphisms, remains poorly understood. Th...
